Dead March

Lyrics
I've watched you from a distance but never spoken a word
I have seen every flaw you try to hide from the world
I sit silent in shadows watching the paths you have made
If only you knew my intentions
I've watched you make the same mistakes over and over
This is not healthy
I need to some how stop this but your beauty intrigues me
It seems to be pulling me in
All I want is a moment or something I can hold close for eternity I've watched you make the same mistakes over and over If only you knew my name and all of my motives
Yet I sit in the same place every night and wait for you to come back home
A few moments would help me find myself
But this problem has taken its tragic grip
Just a few moments will help me find myself again
If only you knew my name and all of my motives
I need to somehow stop this.
All i need is a moment or something I can hold close for eternity
Something I can hold close to me

Analysis - According to the vocalist of the band, this song is about A stalker/lover talking about his victim/lover.

A lot of the lyrics in this song are quite explicit in talking about the content.

"I've watched you from a distance but never spoken a word" Quite obviously just talking about the man watching his victim

"I sit silent in shadows watching the paths you have made" Pretty much the same meaning, just repeating that the man is stalking his victim

"I need to some how stop this. But your beauty intrigues me" Sounds like the stalker knows he has a problem, but is to involved to simply stop doing it

"I've watched you make the same mistakes over and over " Makes out that the stalker cares about his victim and actually cares about her

"If only you knew my name and all of my motives" Sounds like the stalker has feelings for the woman and is not just stalking her, he actually has feelings for her

"All I need is a moment or something i can hold close for eternity" And the last line, I see this as the stalker saying he just needs her to acknowledge him once and he can finally be at rest
